--- Quote from: H.O on January 17, 2017, 07:08:02 pm ---The mV range on the AN8001 is weird. When disconnecting the leads the display value jumps up and then very slowly (as in minutes) bleeds off. Switching ranges back and forth clears it. And re-connecting the leads "instantly" displays the "new" voltage.

The mVDC range on the AN8001 is high impedance, as opposed to the usual 10 - 11 meg, which probably explains the odd behavior.

I'm even more impressed by the advertised specs/price of  this Aneng AN860b meter on eBay

If the specs are to be believed, for $23.36 shipped you get TRMS, Current to 20A, Frequency to 20 MHz, Duty Cycle,  Temp, Min/Max Hold,  a large backlit display, along with the usual measurements.   

Are these Aneng meters new? I've never seen a review of one.  It's impressive what's coming out of Shenzhen these days..- at least for "low end" stuff.

rebadged multimeter, all of them based on the same DMM chipset DTM0660 (Hycon HY12P66)

Since it's build similar to VC921 (TrueRMS variant) it should survive 1000V on resistance, continuity, etc. (unlike dt830) http://y2u.be/QNRFTMk8MVI

If you want most features of DTM0660 chip and don't care above 1000V CAT II search HP-890CN for $20 on ebay. Similar to Gossen MetraHit, $20 HP-890CN will prevent you from using voltage mode with test leads connected to current jack.

If you want DTM0660 with PTC/MOV input protection search Uni-T UT139C.

If you want DTM0660 with PTCs+MOVs+HRC fuses, search Tekpower TP40 for $36 on amazon.

If you want small replacement for DT830 then ZT101/ZT102/RM101/AN8001 for $10 will shine. Things it offers over 830B multimeter in similar sized package:

* Autorange
* 6000 count
* Blacklight
* TrueRMS
* 2xAAA batteries instead of 9v
* Resolution down to 0.01mV both AC and DC
* Capacitance
* Frequency and duty
* Fuses for current
* presumably have no problems with line voltage on resistance measurement
* bigger display
* APO

some more DT0660 multimeter
PeakMeter PM18, PM18C, PM890C, PM890D
http://www.peak-meter.com

I bought two PM18C and two HP-890CN last week.
The PM18C DC voltage calibration is excellent, absolute error is just 1 count off in the worst case, much better than the HP-890CN calibration (one of them is off  by a few counts in DC voltage range).
TheRadioGeek:
I just got a AN8001 multimeter from Ebay the other day. Its a nice little meter for the money. It has a big display but the viewing angle is not good from the top but it is good from the bottom and straight on.
the continuity mode is good with no scratching and it latches. I like it and for $14 you can go wrong. If you want to see what it looks like and how it works then take a look at my youtube video.
